Brief Summary    Functional food and food supplements that have been precisely calibrated to deliver bioactive natural ingredients are a desirable way to unlock health benefits to a wider target population, i.e., those unable to derive the benefits of dietary components that impart various health promoting benefits. Amazentis has developed a food supplement and food product that contains MITOPURE (UA) at specific levels after a controlled manufacturing process such as softgel capsules, hard capsuels and powder. In the case of MITOPURE, which is a metabolite of a natural product present in food, one can only guarantee precise dosing levels by providing the bioactives in a specific formulation. Practically, it would not be possible to consume food products and receive the similar benefits of MITOPURE due to (1) seasonality (2) content level and (3) interpersonal variations of metabolism. 
 This clinical trial aims to comprehensively evaluate and compare the pharmacokinetic profiles of four distinct formulations of Urolithin A in healthy volunteers. Urolithin A, a metabolite derived from ellagic acid in foods, has garnered attention for its potential health benefits, including its association with improved muscle recovery and antioxidant properties. The formulations under investigation include a Formulation A: vegan softgel capsule (Mitopure Urolithin A) (UA-VeganSG), formulation B: Mitopure- Urolithin A hard capsule (Q32939), formulation C: Mitopure- Urolithin A spray dried with Arabic gum vegan hard capsules (VC UASDAG) and formulation D: Mitopure- Urolithin A spray dried with Arabic gum powder (UA-SDAG). 
 The study adopts a randomized, open-label, single-dose, parallel-arm approach. The primary objective is to elucidate and compare the plasma pharmacokinetic parameters across the four Urolithin A formulations. By employing a rigorous methodology involving pharmacokinetic sampling at predetermined time points, this trial aims to provide detailed insights into the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of Urolithin A. Safety considerations are paramount, with secondary objectives focusing on assessing the safety and tolerability of the Urolithin A formulations. Adverse events and tolerability will be diligently monitored throughout the study, contributing to a comprehensive safety profile. 
 This study’s design as an open-label, single-dose, randomized trial aligns with the objective of characterizing the concentration-time profiles of Urolithin A formulation in a controlled setting. The inclusion criteria, stringent fasting requirements, standardized fluid intake and strict dietary restriction protocols ensure homogeneity among the study participants, enhancing the reliability of the outcomes
Ultimately, this clinical trial aims to contribute valuable insights into the pharmacokinetic behavior of different Urolithin A formulations, facilitating informed decisions for future developments and applications in the realm of health and wellness.
